"RAP did a wonderful job power washing my house and paver patio. I live on a busy road and the house builds up a lot of dirt; the back of the house faces north and gets a lot of green buildup on the siding. After Rich and his crew powerwashed, everything is clean, bright and beautiful. The pavers came out great, too, they look like new! Easy to work with and a really good price."

"Veronica and Victor were great to work with. They have replaced my deck in 3 days and it looks gorgeous. I walked out on it so many times just to appreciate how great it looks. Victor and his workers were very professional and detail oriented. I look forward to having them work on other projects in the future."

"This company is like the local business where you feel comfortable hiring!! When speaking to Amber, the wife of the owner she is knowledgeable and very helpful in choosing what would be the best color and style while not pushing any particular style. Just listening to what u r looking for and directing you to it. Fred the owner is also very inciteful to what I wanted done. Gave several examples and prices along the way. No pushy salesman ! When the project manager came, Greg he was very pleasant and was hardworking. He past my expectations!! The deck is gorgeous and well built they do wonderful work and care about your project. They even cleaned up so you would never know they were here .. will definitely hire again if needed. I have already past them on to friends."

Carpentry FAQs, answered by experts

Accurate measurements, sturdy materials, and seamless integration with other structures.

There are both temporary and permanent ways to enclose a carport. If you’re looking to enclose your carport for the winter, a canvas enclosure could do the trick. It won’t be as protective as a permanent structure, but it can offer some protection from elements like snow, rain, and wind. For a permanent enclosure, you can add extra walls, add a new vertical roof, or a lean-to addition on one side of the structure.

Begin by analyzing the blueprints and gathering the proper materials before framing a house. With the prep stages behind you, begin by framing the floor of a house on the newly set foundation. Exterior and interior walls come next, along with rough openings for doors and windows. Contractors will then add ceiling and roof rafters to finish things off. 

When deciding whether to use nails or screws for framing, the specific needs of the project must be taken into account. Nails have long been the go-to option for framing due to their affordability, ease of installation, and ability to withstand shear forces. They are perfect for structural framing projects where fast assembly is essential. In contrast, screws offer exceptional holding power and are particularly useful in situations requiring increased strength and resistance to pull-out forces. For projects that prioritize accuracy and long-lasting quality, screws may be the preferred option, though nails remain a dependable and efficient choice.

A cross brace for a fence gate should stretch from the top corner of the gate’s hinge side to the bottom corner of its latch side at a 45-degree angle to the bottom of the gate. This positioning distributes the bulk of the gate’s weight to the base of the post, taking pressure off the top hinge.
